根据密苏里州心理健康部门的207名被确认在1972年至1974年期间自杀的白色患者,列出了特定年龄的自杀率。结果,按年龄,性别,诊断和患者状态划分,与其他研究进行比较。男性住院患者自杀的可能性是普通人群的5倍,而女性住院患者自杀的可能性是普通人群的10倍。在男女两性中,诊断为严重情感障碍的比率最高。有精神病治疗史的女性比男性更容易增加自杀风险,尽管男性患者自杀的可能性仍然是女性患者的两倍。一个定量模型,它描述了年龄,性别和诊断自杀率的相对影响。
Age-speciic suicide rates are presented, based on 207 white patients of the Missouri Department of Mental Health who were identified as having committed suicide during 1972-1974. Results, divided by age, sex, diagnosis and patient status, are compared with other studies. Male inpatients are about 5 times more likely to commit suicide compared to the general population, while female inpatients are about 10 times more likely to do so. In both sexes, the rate is greatest for the diagnosis of major affective disorder. A history of psychiatric treatment increases the suicide risk more for women than for men, although male patients are still about twice as likely to commit suicide than are female patients. A quantitative model is presented which describes the relative influence of age, sex and diagnosis on suicide rates.
